TODAY IS GONNA BE THE DAY THAT THEY’RE GONNA THROW IT BACK TO YOU
It’s not the welcome home she expected, but that doesn’t mean it’s not the welcome home she deserves.
“You only get one heart,” Walt said to his daughter after the second one ended. He seemed sad, but not regretful. “I gave mine to your mother the day I met her. And she still has it.”
A relationship isn’t supposed to make you feel out of control; it’s not supposed to consume you; it’s not supposed to change you into someone you don’t want to be. But how do you teach that? How do you explain to someone who’s never been in a romantic relationship what a healthy relationship feels like?
How do you explain to a sixteen-year-old girl who’s never been in love what love is supposed to feel like?
When things were good, they were great. But when they were bad, they were terrible.
It was so easy to mistake control for love, to believe he was upset because he cared, that he was protective because he loved her so goddamn much.
Living a life that isn’t meant for you is its own version of hell.
In every story, there’s a hero and villain. Sometimes one person can be both.
You see what you want to see, not what’s there.
